I've spent close to a grand on there. If anything wasn't quite up and up, how would that be Ryan's or any of the other moderators fault. It's just like buying on Evilbay. How many times you suppose something you're bidding on has a shill jumping in and running up the price?
So as I said earlier, if you don't like it don't use it. Just like the Cubbies. I don't like them so I don't tune in any of their games. I also don't go bashing them anywhere I get the chance to.
This is not the first time for some of the guys throwing a fit on this thread, hence the sour grapes. Nobody said anybody wasn't allowed to give an opinion. When you start jumping up and down complaining, dropping 4 letter words, and pounding your chest it's time to let it go.
I've gotten to know Ryan a bit away from here and there and I don't believe he's doing anything shady.

I have bought items on the Facebook site.
Just did the other day was a seat shock for WD 45.
Also bought my 190XT series 3 Front Grill.
I have been to auction's that someone just run up the bid.
I just bid what I want if sells for higher, guess it was not meant to be.
What I really do not like is the buyer premiums!
Like Mecum's has, but if they have something I want.
Just figure that end with it when bidding.

I have never been on the ac facebook whatever it is but if its so dam bad why don't y'all start your own AC auction page and quit gettin your panties in a wad here. Good grief! The cure for a bad business is to do it better and the other guy will be gone.

I will not go to an auction when there is a buyer's premium. If everyone did that the buyer's premium would disappear. Dusty

I don't understand the upset about a buyers premium if I'm going to pay $XXXX for something why would I care how the money is split up? Also I don't care who is bidding against me or why, they can't make me pay more than I want to pay. Auctions are held for 2 reasons 1)To make the seller money 2)To make the auctioneer money. Just always keep those two things in mind and you'll be good to go at any auction whether you're at a local farm,ebay or anywhere else. I've been to thousands of auctions over the years,love 'um.

I think a buyers premium is a cleaver strategy...most bidders will not pre-plan what their max bid should be (including the premium). It only takes a couple of bidders like this to get that extra buck in the heat of the bidding. I call it a shady practice and avoid those auctions also. How many times have you gone "just a little bit more" than you planned on bidding??? I think we all have....

Well I guess it sort of like a local case that was in the courts here years ago about a fellow that signed off on a piece of real estate and didn't realize what he was signing. Old Judge Head who was known for taking a few drinks early in the day told the fellow Well Mr X I'm going to have to rule against you since the law can only go so far in protecting a person against their own stupidity(LOL)
